I guess I lost the round. At least I know I can throw together an awesome MOC in about 4 hours with no planning.

Here it is. I'm surprised I could even finish it. The theme was Only 2 Colors. My opponent Mihai Marius Mihu as well as his awesome MOCs can be found by clicking on his name. I was at a loss when I read the theme. Only two colors. Hmm... what to do. Then it hit me, like a ton of bricks, I had no clue!

So I sat down and starting holding unique shapes of different colors, rotating them and picturing what they could become. Finally I saw the shape of an armored carapace (bug exoskeleton). Ok then, mecha-bug it is. I knew I would not be able to compete with Mihai Marius Mihu on the architecture side of MOC building so I went with something familiar. Sci-fi.

The Story goes.

A race of super intelligent bugs decides to build a massive anatomically incorrect version of themselves. It turns out the engineers couldn't figure out how to make six legs work in unison. After an army of these 80' bughemoths were constructed they began their campaign of terror by squashing every person in their path. Months after the initial assault the bugs were made victorious and decommissioned the majority of their bughemoths, only leaving a few to patrol the waste lands left in the desolation of their attack.

I'm sorry, Sean, but my vote goes to your opponent. You did a really, really good job here, especially with the design of the bughemoth itself. What is helpful in other MOCs, is a problem in this one: The vig base. With just 2 colours allowed, it is complicated to find out what belongs to the bughemoth and what to the ground. Without the base and a bit more greebling on the bughemoth instead, I'd have liked it better.
